During “Invest” week of REALTOR® Advocacy Month, consider several important numbers supplied by REALTOR® Political Action Committee.

For example, our REALTOR® PAC is recognized as one of the most bipartisan PACs in the country, supporting both Republican and Democratic candidates.

The estimated tax savings from the Mortgage Interest Deduction for the average taxpayer who owns a $200,000 home with a 30-year fixed rate mortgage of 5 percent is — $3,500.

RPAC gave zero dollars to presidential candidates during the 2016 elections, choosing instead to support REALTOR®-friendly candidates in local, state, U.S. House and U.S. Senate elections.

Remember to vote, act and invest to make a difference!
